Kind of shellshocked to say that my first book has sold out! I am so proud to have been a part of telling these stories, and I am so pleased that so many people wanted to learn more about NZ medical history. Thank you everyone for the support 🥰 #aotearoahistory #feministhistory #womenshistory

I took the 16th C limp binding workshop today and it was absolutely fantastic! Linette explained everything so well and i felt like i picked it up so quickly! Not that this is the neatest thing in the world but i got to live my book binding dreams for 3 hours! @imc-leeds.bsky.social #IMC2025

What an amazing experience it is publishing a book 🥰 i feel so honoured to have been chosen to tell the stories of New Zealand's first women doctors. Thanks to everyone who came to our launch, I am still in shock that it is on shelves.

I am very proud to say that my first book "Against the Odds: New Zealand's First Women Doctors" has officially launched! We had an overwhelming number of people turn up to the opening lecture at the @universityofotago.bsky.social last night and we received wonderful feedback. Thanks for the support!

I couldn't have asked for a better panel. The presentations were brilliant and the audience was lovely. Thank you once again Shachar, Yaniv, and Erin! #imc2024

In today's episode of #chatgpt is amazing, did anyone else know that it is able to determine what handwriting might be. This is something i am pretty decent at but sometimes i just get caught on something...

Just received some amazing feedback for my research at the St Andrews / Tübingen Graduate Conference. The paper is now up on Academia.edu and talks about the various audiences of Gregory of Tours and how he manipulated their understanding of his stories 🤔

The first draft of the first chapter of my first book. Absolutely insane to see it printed out and before I make all of the red editing marks over it. @EMWoNZ book coming out June 2025.
